Kijani Hotel

We had been regular guests at Kijani House from 2007 to 2010 but were hesitant to return after the management changed; we were pleasantly surprised. We stayed in the King Suite, which was very comfortable and breezy even without air‑conditioning and offered beautiful views. The restaurant is also beautiful and the food delicious. The pool is not very large but was never crowded. Everything was perfect. We had a lovely stay.

“A nice hotel by the sea near Lamu”

A great hotel for a quiet holiday! We loved the hotel and the staff! The room we were assigned was very nice and overlooked the water. Staff took good care of us from the moment we arrived at the airport in Manda to the return trip after our holiday. We chose the hotel because it was close to Lamu so that we could visit and learn some of the history. The food was great, from breakfast to dinner! We chose not to eat anywhere else as we were happy with the quality and service. The room had a nice sitting area, two ceiling fans, A/C and also mosquito nets. (Not really needed as so few but nice to have.) The pool was a nice place to relax and have a beer after a walk or a swim in the sea down the beach. Again, staff attentive and offered refreshments. The hotel arranged a beautiful sunset cruise with Capt. Babu on Matlai and we enjoyed it immensely. The hotel also helped arrange our walking tour of Lamu with Mohammed which helped us to see Lamu and enjoy his guidance. Best part of the stay was getting to meet Pole Pole, the hotel cat and to spend time with him poolside! A bit more speed in the morning for coffees and juice. Otherwise, all was incredible and everyone super helpful and friendly!

“Best choice in Shela - charming traditional style, superb staff, waterfront views.”

We loved the friendly ambiance, exceptional staff service, huge bedroom with balcony, traditional architectural style, charming communal spaces, waterfront views, and excellent restaurant. Really, all is good for mid-priced hotel. Continuous attention to refurbishment, and extra focus on flow of food services are tiny mentions

“Truly a paradise”

Kijani sits just a stone’s throw from the beach, and every little detail feels intentional; the staff always greet you with a smile and are ready to help. Each night we got a mosquito net, the rooms were air‑conditioned and the beds super comfy. The pool was a highlight, and the restaurant serves great food—though we only stayed two nights, we’re already planning a return.

“Oasi di relax - Struttura, personale e ristorante TOP”

Everything was perfect—from the warm welcome by Tina at reception, the green setting with many turtles, the relaxing pool and lounge area, to the wonderful staff. The restaurant was great, and Sifa’s smile made our stay even nicer. Truly flawless—an oasis of pleasure, and we’re already looking forward to returning.
